REPORT OF THE MINISTER FOR FOREIGN AFFAIRS "TO HIS IMPERIAL AND ROYAL MAJESTY. " Bayonne, 'April 24, AA: " SIRE—The security of j• Jar Empire; the cond. solidation of its power, and the necessity of employ ing every means to compel to make peace a Govern ment which, making a sanguinary sport of mankind, andin violation ofevery thing held most sacred amorigst men, has adopted the principle of perpetual war, imposes on your Majesty the obligation of ,putting an end to the anarchy which menaces Spain, and to the dissentions which agitate it. These important circumstati6es rendered the choice of a line of cone dud extretely impsrtant, they involve considera tioriS I;sPhieli interest in the highest degree both France and Europe. " Of all the States of Europe there are none whose fate is more necessarily conne&ed with that . of France than Spain. Spain is to France either a useful friend or a dangerous enemy. An intimate . alliance must unite the two nations; or an implacable enmity separate them. Unfortunately that jealousy and distrti - 4t 2 4hich exist between two neighbourin! . .; States have 'rendered enniity _habitual. It is thus - that the ensangeioed page of history atfeds the rival ship of CHARLES . V. and FRANCIS I. which was not% less the rival;hiP of the two nations than ~of their Sovereigns, and which Continued under their suc cessors. The trouble of the League were ex cited and fomented by Spain, who was no stranger to the disorder of La 'Fronde, -and the power of Lot is XIV. did not begin to rise until after having courjuerecl.Spoin, -he formed with the then reigning House in that kingdom an alliance, which, in Its co.h:equences,,p l 4ced the Crown of that kingdom on the head of his grandson. That att ot proviyient policy gave to the two countries an age of peace, alter three ages of war. " This state of things, however, ceased with the , cause which gave birth to it. The French Revolu tion broke the permanent connedion which existed between the two nations. Thea came the third Coalition, - in which Spain, prodigal to France of _ protestations of frieniship, secretly promised her aid to the coalesced Powers, - as was discovered by the Papers communicated to the English Parlianient. The English Ministry determined from this moment to undertake nothing against Spanish Ainerica, al ready considering Spain as an Ally, and Spain, as well as England, looked forward to the defeat of your armies. Events set aside that expealation, and Spain remained friendly, "At the epoch of he Fourth Cbalition,Spain spew ed more openly, her hostile disposition, and bettayed by a public ad, the secret of her engagements with • England. That famous Proclamation cannot be for gotten which,preceded by nine days the battle of Jen,,, by which all Spain was called to arms when no enemy threateneA her, and which .was followed by measures promptly effedive, since the military este blistimentof that kingdom was-raised from 1 t B,OQO men tot 40,000. A report was spread that the army of your Majesty was beaten, and that Austria was about to declare against you; and Spain imagined she might declare herself with impunity. The victory of Jena confounded her proje&s. Ile moment is arriv ed to'give to France on the side of the Pyrenees • a permanent security, so that if ever she is exposed to dangers,.she may, instead of . having any thing to fear from Spain, exped from her aid, and have recourse to the Spanish armies to march to defend her. In its present State, Spain is ill-governed, badly united, or rather, not united at all, in a common cause against England. Her marine .is negleeted, scarcely are any ships to be seen in her ports, and those in the worst state; the magazines are badly supplied, the workmen an 4 sailors not paid, whilst iu her ports there are neither redoubts, nor batteries, uor armaments, all the branches of administration the most horrible disorder prevails ; all the resources cif the Monarchy are dilapidated, the State loaded - with amenormous debt, is without credit: 'The pro duce of the customs, and estates of the clergy destin-
